It was the lead story INTERNATIONALLY when it broke. The raging debate with continue with his court appearance and then it’ll be closely followed if it goes to trial (and the rumour mill has it getting a lot messier before it’s resolved) Help me out yycflyguy, when this pilot was hired by AC in the...

Hey Postmaster why the attitude? Did you mean to quote the original poster and not me? I wasn't asking about the altitude, I haven't flown to major airports in the US very much, never been to Phoenix, and I'm wondering how JAMIL can appear to have 2 different tracks after it for 08. According to th...

Seriously? Its an approach transition. This stuff is covered in basic IFR.

Set 4000'. The hard 6000' should be coded in the FMS, after which the descent will continue to 4000'.

It’s an airplane. Fly it. Thank you for your insightful and helpful advice on this post... NOT! Give me a break :roll: You should know how to fly an airplane by the point in your career that you’re applying to AC. If you’re instead trying to pass with some sort of “intel”, you’re not going to get v...

The same stooges were just reelected on the negotiating committee. Lots of chatter going around about how some younger guys who wanted to run were directly mistreated/intimidated/disrespected because they voted no to the current contract. Any opposition to the actions of previous MEC labelled as "d...

Embarrassing. AC wins again.

Airlines use their own programs and some have meteorologists on staff. There are lots of ways to retrieve METAR/TAF data that’s not on the NavCanada site.

That crotchety old bastard deserved it.

At least nobody else got hurt.

That’s pretty inconvenient for a small flight school like that, hopefully insurance also compensates them for the revenue lost while they procure another aircraft.

Gulfstreams have more of a presence. People notice them. Pull up to your favourite FBO in a global, and the instagram models in your entourage won’t even know what it is.

Gulfstreams go faster than Globals, Bob.

The reign of king Claude comes to an end. Jazz pilots rejoice!

I’ve flown with Rory. He’s a good dude. It’s pretty obvious that letter was very satirical. Doesn’t take a genius to figure that out. He, like many others, is fed the f-up with how ALPA is running things, and poked fun at all the nonsense.

Where are these so called experienced pilots going to go? One or two might go overseas, but let's be honest, 99% will stay and simply be grumpy. Corporate, overseas, porter, Jetlines 2.0? I'd wager that there's more than just one or two going overseas. Canada is losing record people in the mid 30's...

I still can't get over junior Air Transat pilots concerned over the shit Quality of Life at AC. How did the MEC at Air Canada present such a shit contract that it has come to this?! Presented? Have you been under a rock? The contract was ratified over a year ago. Lol...so what was the first step af...

This current C suite has been nothing but talk for years now. They love to come up with all of these grand plans, but with no way to actually execute them. The fleet is running at max capacity right now on all types. Delays are at an all time high, the network is stretched so thin that there’s zero ...

CB wont step down until he’s forced to. Zero self awareness.

AC doesn’t want to fix Jazz’ staffing issues. Jazz doesn’t want to fix Jazz’ staffing issues. They seem content to keep shrinking until there’s nothing left.

Then what?

Bede has given some solid advice here, and some examples to back up what he’s saying, but truedude you continue to live in a fantasy world where you believe this S.35 nonsense has a chance. Actually, scratch that. You acknowledge that it has little chance of success (congratulations to you for attem...

True dude, Bede is giving you sound advice. It may not be what you want to hear, but facts are facts. Nobody is denying that Jazz pilots got screwed. The unfortunate truth, however, is that in this instance, there really is no viable remedy. Sometimes life isn’t fair, sometimes the big corporations ...

It’s not defeatist to throw in the towel at this point. There’s no point in wasting all of that time and money. It’s a bit of a moot point, as ALPA National won’t pursue it anyway, but you’d have better luck if you regroup, and go after a grievance against the company for the guys who got screwed on...

Just give it a rest already. Don’t waste anymore money on this. People who don't work at Jazz don't get to tell pilots how to proceed. Amd that so many who don't work at Jazz are working so hard to convince us not to do it, tells me we absolutely should! It’s just going to waste time and money, the...
